which are chiefly found in the Eastern part of Curasao. As a
specimen I choose
The Hills near Blauw.
On the almost bare ground stand widely scattered low small plants
of Evolvulus sericeus and Heliotropium humile, Aristida Swart-
ziana, Tragus racemosa, Paspalum glabrum, Sida procumbens. The
same sort of vegetation is found on
The Hills near Davelaar.
These are almost quite bare and show small complexes of some-
what higher Acacia villosa, Croton flavens and Caesalpinia coriaria,
but for the rest the only flora is formed by Bouteloua Humbold-
tiana and Aristida Swartziana, small plants of Jatropha gossypi-
folia, Evolvulus sericeus, Corchorus hirsutus, Tephrosia cinerea,
some Cereus plants, Sida procumbens and Diodia rigida. When
on these hills more Acacia tortuosa and some other shrubs deve-
lop, they are more overgrown. I mention as a specimen:
The Hills near Malpais.
Here is a rather dense shrub-growth of Croton flavens, Phyllan-
thus Euwensii, between which...”
